Nice Sunday stroll in the park

Sunday was also filled with sunshine. We had already made plans with friends that had just returned back to Sweden after having lived in Washington D.C for 5 months to meet for a nice walk out in Hagaparken. As we were having breakfast this morning some other friends called and wanted to know if we would like to go out and join for a nice walk. So we decided to meet up with both sets of friends and go for a walk together.

There were lots of people out in the park. People going for walks, others for a jog and plenty of families taking their kids out for some snow sledding. Here in Sweden you just can´t pass up a nice sunny winter day like this one without enjoying the sunshine. We had a nice fika in the copper tents as they are called.

Little H always wants to be a princess and yesterday she had gotten herself this princess tiara. She loved riding on C´s shoulders. Here in Hagaparken the residence of the Swedish royal crown princess and her husband is located. They moved here after their royal wedding last year.

Lots of people were also out on the ice that know has frozen enough so that you can both walk and skate on it.

After our walk and fika in Hagaparken we drove out to my parents for dinner. So we had a nice Sunday in all possible ways.
